국내 대학 단기 교환학생을 위한 한국 문화 콘텐츠 기반 핸즈온 굿즈 디자인교육 프로그램 개발 및 적용 사례

초록

This study aims to develop a Hands-on Goods Design education program based on Korean cultural content for short-term exchange students at domestic universities, and to analyze its effectiveness through real-world classroom application. To this end, a program was designed to enable participants to create various goods inspired by Korean culture in a hands-on manner, structured around two sequential phases: ‘Content Explanation’ and ‘Production.’ The program was subsequently implemented over a total of 9 sessions(45 class periods) from December 29, 2025 to February 6, 2026, with 55 international exchange studentsfrom the United States, Australia, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vietnam, and Myanmar. Following the instructional application, the effectiveness of the program was evaluated through class satisfaction surveys, open-ended course reviews, and an analytical assessment of students’ goods design outcomes. The findings revealed that participants demonstrated significant positive improvements in their overall understanding of, interest in, and perceived value of Korean culture. Furthermore, drawing on a deepened comprehension of Korean cultural elements, students incorporated their own cultural backgrounds into the creative process, hand-crafting original goods and experiencing a strong sense of achievement and satisfaction through designing and retaining their own works. Ultimately, this study confirms that a Hands-on Goods Design program grounded in Korean cultural content enables foreign learners to move beyond passive engagement with Korean culture, growing into active learners who meaningfully reinterpret and expand upon the cultural significance and context of Korea.
